On the evening of the second day, Zhao Yuanrong finished Lin Xi's noodle soup contentedly, and then walked around the yard with Lin Xi to digest.

As they walked, Zhao Yuanrong said, "Cousin, I want to go back to the palace tomorrow."

Lin Xi paused slightly, "What's the matter?"

"Yup."

What can a little kid do?Lin Xi was puzzled, and looked down at Zhao Yuanrong smilingly looking at him, a little curious.

"Rong'er, what would you like to tell me?"

Zhao Yuanrong immediately shook his head, blinked his big eyes, and said nothing.

The child has his own little secret, and the parents don't have to keep asking, so Lin Xi stopped asking, and instead said: "The palace is your home, you can go back if you want, but you still have to tell grandma and aunt, send me How long will it take for someone to take you back?"

Zhao Yuanrong thought for a while, then stretched out a finger, "One day."

It didn't take long, Lin Xi thought about it, "I'll ask the teacher for a leave of absence tomorrow, can I send you back the next day?"

I thought Zhao Yuanrong would happily agree, but unexpectedly he refused, "No, it's important for my cousin to study, and Rong'er can just go back by himself."

so sensible?Lin Xi was surprised, and Zhao Yuanrong's eyes rolled around.

Lin Xi asked in a low voice, "Do you have a little secret? It's about me?"

Zhao Yuanrong nodded immediately, then shook his head quickly when he thought of something, and seeing Lin Xi acted like I understood, pouted his lips angrily, "Anyway, uncle is not allowed to go."

Zhao Xiaoshizi, who is as clingy as brown sugar, must have a ghost now that he is uncharacteristically.

However, once Zhao Yuanrong decides what to do like his father, it is basically impossible to change it. It is a good thing to have an idea, so Lin Xi nodded in understanding. There are people following anyway, and it is the palace, so there is no danger. You go to the palace, and then go to the school, I will pick you up after class."

Hearing this, Zhao Yuanrong was happy now, "Okay." He answered crisply.

That night, Lin Xi asked Huanhuan to go to Chongjin Hall and Songtao Courtyard to inform Mrs. Tai and Mrs. Liu about it.

Zhao Shizi was homesick, so he had nothing to refuse, so he sent a steady mother to take care of him. Chongjintang was Qi's mother, and Songtaoyuan was Lu's mother, both of whom could replace Mrs. Tai and Mrs. Liu's confidants.

Zhao Yuanrong didn't want it at first, but now he is used to it and hates being watched, but Lin Xi invited him in with a smile, patted Zhao Yuanrong's forehead, and said with a smile: "Even if you don't like it, you can't refuse, otherwise your grandmother will have to accompany you back in person , would you like to take care of it with a few wives, or..."

Zhao Yuanrong had a special status. Although he didn't interfere too much in Lanyuexuan and the two courts, he was in the Hou's mansion, so he was not afraid of accidents under his nose.But once you leave the Hou Mansion, you must have your confidants to take care of you to be at ease.

Zhao Yuanrong was smart, so he obediently took the two mothers back home.

Seeing Zhao Yuanrong's carriage entering the palace, Lin Xi turned and went to the academy.

Mr. Bai left a lot of homework, and he had to memorize them proficiently and understand them thoroughly. Those in front of Zhao Yuanrong were just a drop in the bucket.

Fortunately, Lin Xi has a good memory. He can memorize the outline after reading it a few times, and pay attention to the words and sentences, so he can memorize them easily. Coupled with the huge knowledge system of later generations, many experts have researched and analyzed these articles, so they can understand these articles thoroughly. Not difficult.

Of course, some ideas are quite different from this era, so Lin Xi marked them out and asked Mr. Bai for advice the next day.

No matter how strict the teacher is, facing such a student, he can't make a mistake.

Besides, Mr. Bai is not a rigid person. Sometimes Lin Xi’s forward thinking makes Mr. Bai very happy, so he often praises him, "Don't be ashamed to ask, today's study is completed today, it's hard for you to be so qualitative, I accept it. apprentice."

"The teacher is famous all over the world for his knowledge, but the students feel the pressure. If they don't study hard, how can they be worthy of your tireless teaching?"

Lin Xi's slightly playful tone aroused old Mr. Bai's heart. He is old and likes well-behaved and sensible children, but if he is too polite, he will alienate him. Caiyi entertainment is the best way to win the favor of the old man.

"I remember these words as a teacher. When I was a teacher, I was ranked first in three yuan and was honored. As my closed disciple, if there is no champion in the future, don't come back to see me."

Lin Xi opened his mouth wide in an instant, dumbfounded, "Huh?"

Is the champion so easy to take the exam?Instead of two arts and sciences in each province, one will be born in the whole country in three years, okay?

Difficulty coefficient is not a grade.

"Ah what!" Old Mr. Bai knocked on his forehead, pretending to be angry, "It's fine if I don't accept apprentices, once I accept apprentices, I will be stronger than others. Everyone knows that you are my closed disciple, shouldn't you Fighting for the teacher?"

It's hard for a famous teacher's apprentice...

"Isn't there still a senior brother?" Lin Xi asked in a low voice.

"Him?" Old Mr. Bai sneered, as if he was extremely dissatisfied with this great apprentice, "I don't see him a few times a year, let alone studying quietly, I'm afraid he would have paid back what he taught earlier, and he still wants to be like that." In the examination for the number one scholar, if there is a fellow Jinshi in the end, it will be a high incense. If it is not for the sake of his devotion to the country and the people, the teacher would have kicked him out!"

"..." What a resentment this was, and Lin Xi became even more curious about that senior brother.

Not in the capital, but also for the country and the people, it can be seen that he is already an official, without the imperial examination, but he is under the protection of grace, he must be a wealthy family, then who will recommend him to Mr. Bai?

Could it be that Zhao Jingyi gave him the back door?Lin Xi laughed a bit after thinking about it, but couldn't stop laughing.

It's possible!

Back then, Eunuch Cao said that Zhao Jingyi was looking for a teacher for him.

Lin Xi poured a cup of tea for Mr. Bai, handed it to Mr. Bai, and said in a low voice: "If it weren't for the fact that there is no general in the court, and the court has been defeated again and again, and my brother has the world in mind, I don't want to sit on the sidelines, otherwise I would definitely like to Quietly learn from the teacher."

Old Mr. Bai squinted his eyes, as if enjoying the young apprentice's attentive service, he said indifferently: "Actually, whether reading is good or bad is second, and being honest and upright is the foundation. He can stand up when the whole country is in danger, and it is also gratifying for him to tell the truth for his teacher." Endless."

Ha ha... Lin Xi twitched the corner of her mouth.

"Teacher, what do you think of this battle in the Northern Territory, can senior brother triumph again?"

"He has been fond of military books since he was a child. He is quite familiar with military affairs. He knows how to infer other things from one instance. He has a calm temperament. He is definitely not an aggressive person. He has experience and is full of vigor. If he loses with the power of the whole country..."

Then he couldn't hear Mr. Bai's answer. When Lin Xi looked up, he saw the old man staring at him, holding the teacup in his hand as if he didn't know whether to drink or not.

"Teacher, drink tea." Lin Xi smiled harmlessly with her eyes bent.

Hello Zhao Jingyi!

As if he could see Lin Xi's heart, Mr. Bai couldn't help but put down his teacup for the time being, and spoke for his apprentice, "Xi'er, being a teacher doesn't mean accepting apprentices at will. You have to study your character, character, talent and learning beforehand. It’s nothing more than a teacher recommended you, if you don’t have enough talent and bad character, he will be overpowering others, and a teacher will not agree.”

Yes, he should really thank this senior brother a lot!

Lin Xi twitched the corners of her mouth, "Teacher, don't worry. After the senior brother triumphs, the students will definitely thank the senior brother for his recommendation."

The word "good" is really serious.

Mr. Bai did not doubt that he was there, he was very pleased, and said repeatedly: "It should be like this, and the brothers should be brothers and sisters."

That's right, as a senior brother, can this be done?

However, when she thought that she was still Zhao Jingyi's wife-in-law, Lin Xi felt that Zhao Jingyi's shame would not bother her at all.

It's really lifeless.

Even if Zhao Jingyi is not in the capital, his influence is as fine and dense as a spider web, weaving around Lin Xi, making people have nowhere to escape.

Leaning in the carriage, Lin Xi's heart was in a mess for a moment.

The clatter of horseshoes reached the palace, and the majestic gate opened. Lin Xi saw the porter respectfully welcome the carriage into the palace.

When Lin Xi arrived at Qiyunxuan, Eunuch Cao waited for him with a smile on his face, "Young master Lin is finally here, the prince has been waiting for a long time."

Look, the father-in-law in charge of a palace is respectful and polite to him.

Lin Xi nodded, "Rong'er is in the house?"

"Yes, but the prince is not very happy, please trouble Mr. Lin to coax more."

When did the job of coaxing Mr. Zhao Xiaoshi fall to him?Moreover, Zhao Yuanrong was not happy, and he was still very worried.

When Lin Xi pushed open the door, she saw Gu's mother kneeling on the ground, as if she was begging Zhao Yuanrong for something, while Qi's and Lu's mothers standing beside her also looked vague.

Seeing Lin Xi's arrival, they were startled and relieved.

Zhao Yuanrong immediately jumped off the chair, hugged his thigh, and said coquettishly dissatisfied: "Cousin, why did you come here!"

"I came as soon as school was over, what are you doing here?"

Lin Xi was honestly very curious, Mama Gu was Zhao Yuanrong's nanny, and she was deeply trusted.However, Zhao Jingyi didn't like and was dissatisfied that Gu's mother doted on Zhao Yuanrong too much, so she didn't let her follow to Yongning Houfu.

Zhao Yuanrong didn't say anything, but turned around and ran to the table. Only then did Lin Xi see several exquisite boxes on the table, and Zhao Yuanrong picked up these boxes and walked towards him.

Mother Qi and Mother Lu looked at each other, hesitated and did not move. They couldn't guess what the elder son was thinking, and felt that these things were hot, so they were a little hesitant.

The dangling seems a bit heavy for such a small body, Gu's mother got up to help, but Zhao Yuanrong bypassed her.

Lin Xi couldn't see it, so she could only go forward to take it by herself. Zhao Yuanrong felt relieved when he saw him, "Cousin, we can go back."

"You came back just to bring these?" Lin Xi somehow felt that the box in his hand became a little hot.

"Yes."

"What is it?"

"A reward for my cousin." Zhao Yuanrong didn't feel anything at all, and replied crisply, proudly raised his face, and said, "My cousin will definitely like it."

As soon as Zhao Yuanrong finished speaking, the expressions of the three mothers in the room all changed.

Seeing this, Lin Xi's heart skipped a beat. What Zhao Yuanrong gave him might not be simple.

The box in his hand immediately became hot, but Zhao Yuanrong swallowed it back into his stomach when he saw the corner of his mouth curled up in a smile.

Eunuch Cao was still standing in the yard, still smiling kindly on his wrinkled face, as if he didn't care about everything that happened in the house, and his eyes didn't even rest on Lin Xi's hand.

He just said, "My lord, if you need to bring something next time, just tell the guards directly." Then he smiled at Lin Xi, "I heard that Mr. Lin is already teaching the son to count, that would be great, next time You have to trouble Mr. Lin for some trivial matters."

Lin Xi didn't know about the trifles for the time being, but the troubles had already arrived.

In the carriage, Lin Xi opened these boxes. Although she had some guesses in her heart, she still couldn't help sighing, how could she be so loved by the prince and son!

What is inside, Zhao Yuanrong has been a reward from the palace over the years as a nobleman of the royal family.

Leaving aside the gold and jade accessories, there is a thick stack of land deeds for the Tianzhuang shop, and some small toys that Zhao Yuanrong likes, but they are inlaid with gold and jade, and all kinds of gems are priceless.

He closed the box and said with emotion: "Rong'er, it's too precious."

Zhao Yuanrong didn't care about these things, he just asked: "Does my cousin like it? After thinking about it, I don't know what reward I should give my cousin. These are Rong'er's best things."

Like it, who doesn't like it!

Lin Xi was in a frenzy, but he couldn't handle it at all!

A bowl of egg noodles is nothing more than a few eggs, how can it be compared with these, and eating a bowl for a lifetime is not worth it, okay?

At that moment, Lin Xi strangely wanted to teach Zhao Yuanrong the equivalent conversion, so that this otherworldly child could learn more about the price level in the capital.

Seeing Lin Xi's distorted face, Zhao Yuanrong, who was originally happy, felt aggrieved, "Is my cousin unhappy?"

His eyes instantly turned red, and it took him a whole night to think about it!

Cry, cry, cry!

It is estimated that in this child's heart, the egg noodles he made with his own hands are really as valuable as these precious things.

Change your heart for your heart!

Lin Xi finally sighed, and hugged this lovely child into his arms, "Rong'er, what can you tell me to do?"

Both father and son have this virtue, what should he do.

But Zhao Yuanrong blurted out, "Is my cousin married to my father?"

"..."

Lin Xi instantly had the urge to look up to the sky and howl.
